Coast Mountain College

Empathetic instructors, small class sizes, and field schools are what CMTN does well. The rest, not so much. Housing/Security - This is what turned my entire experience to be a negative one for me. There was little professionalism. Major safety concerns (I was a residence advisor for my 2 year term there) were left unaddressed and chalked up to "I did my part, there is nothing else I can do". This is not good enough when the fire-suppression equipment has 0 charge and is over a year past-due their inspection. I had many negative encounters with a particular individual who was a security officer at CMTN, though I expect this experience is not going to be common with everyone; the precipitating factors were circumstantial, however it was dealt with very unprofessionally and many profane words were thrown at me. I ended up feeling harassed, and when expressing my concern of being targeted/harassed, the response was "on whose part?". This same individual decided to yell profanity at me while in the community, off-campus, as well. The housing coordinator would enter rooms, sometimes security as well, without ANY notice and any notice of entry. Hopefully, you were dressed! This lack of privacy and intrusiveness was insulting at best. At worst, it led to a very depressing and empty experience while living on the dorms. The rules in their handbook were often stretched to accommodate what they wanted to accomplish; there were many surprises. Other things of note - It was evident that NWCC was struggling financially. It appears they are shifting their focus to bring in international students. I think that this is fine; however, as a local or Aboriginal student, you may feel like you are secondary in the college's interest. RA's made multiple attempts to secure a spot on campus to have social events to increase community engagement, which was responded to with multiple counts of "I'll look into that", and never going anywhere. In contrast, international students were given the privilege of celebrating Diwali in the longhouse in 2018. If you were there, you may have found this to be quite disrespectful to the Aboriginal community due to the abundant alcohol consumption. If I had to do it over, I wouldn't go to CMTN again. With every other educational institution I've attended, I left with a great sense of pride of having attended with many positive experiences to recollect with staff and community members. However, at CMTN, the response and feeling I receive is "You're no longer a student here." If I HAD to attend CMTN again, I would live off-campus and then my review would be a 4-5/10. It's cheap tuition due to CMTN being designated a community college. However, it's the same at any other community college in Canada, so it's nothing really unique to CMTN.

Great experience and the location of the college is so beautiful. Faculties and college staffs are so supportive.

can indian students take addmission? ..plz tell

Happy Satisfied with my course in Prince Rupert.Only thing I didnt like were the snot up nosed old bags at registration.They treat you like a kid!! Time for those 2 to retire.

Not worth it. Wouldnt answer a simple admission query and they expect us to pay 100$ and get rejected if we dont meet the requirements? they should be able to answer questions regarding requirements.. INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS beware!
